FAILED IN EFFORT Educates Young Man to Make Congenial Husband. - Pittsburg, May 23. Miss Cora B. Lynch, young, nifty, high minded, well manicured, formerly a school teacher, but now wealthy and retired, told a strange tale of shattered romantic love when she appealed to the court for protection against James It. Neeld. She was endeavoring to educate Neeld so that he would be a husband congen ial to her. It was over Neeld's need of addition al schooling that the dream of love was shattered.

A BIG INCREASE III 1IAVY EFFIClEflCY Uncle Sam's Sea Fighters Are 1200 Times Better Than in Last War. Of every, million letters that pass through the postofflce only one goes astray, and that one never happens to be a bill. Ohio State Journal. New York, May 23. "Scientific man agement" as practiced in the United States Navy was the theme of George Von L Meyer, Secretary of the Navy, last night, before 'the Economic club. Secretary Meyer told how the applica tion of modern business and industrial had increased the navy's ef ficiency, and as a measure of economy he advocated lessening the numtter of navy yards, and asked his hearers to aid him in this project, upon which congress thus far had failed to smile. "For the past two years within the Navy Department," said Mr. Meyer, "we have been making a study of or ganization and the economic and scien tific management of the resources of tho navy. "Scientific management experts who saw the recent battle practice tell me the battle ship is the finest exhibition of scientific manage ment they have ever seen. "In 1898 the percentage of hits at the battle of Santiago was C per cent. Today.it is S31-3, although the range has increased from 3,000 yards to over 10,000 yards. The rate of Tire then was one shot In five minutes, while today It is two shots in one minute. A comparison of the in creased rate of firing, the Increase in the range and the percentage of hits shows that we are 1,200 times better today than' we were at Santiago. "One of the chief causes of great expenditures In the navy is the exces sive number of navy yards on the At lantic Coast and Gulf of Mexico. . "We have on the Atlantic Coast nine navy yards, where money has been expended lavishly in some instances, which would not have been the case is the strategic and economic point on ly bad been considered. "Last year, as a beginning, A recom mended to congress that the yards at New' Orleans, Pensacola, Port Royal, New London, Sackett's Harbor, San Juan. Culebra and Cavite be abolished. which would have brought about a sav ing, irrespective of the price which the government might have obtained for these properties, of an annual main tenance expense of $1,600,000. Not a single navy yard was abolished by con gress, although it has been demon strated that every one of those yards is a needless drain upon the Govern ment's financial resources. "I have criticized" th "I have been criticized by Southern members for not having recommended the abolishment of any of the Eastern yards, the reason being that the docks of the Eastern yards were a necessity to the fleet." SEIIT TOJHE CAIIAL Tenth Infantry to Be Trans ferred from State. BOILERMAKERS MET (National News Service) Omaha. Neb., May 23. Between three and four hundred delegates, rep resenting many parts of the United States and Canada, gathered in Omaha yesterday for the annual convention of the International Boilermakers' association. For every ton of gold in circulation there are fifteen tons of silver. Washington, May 23. The probabil ity is that the Tenth United States reg iment of infantry, formerly stationed at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, will be sent to Panama when the time comes for it to see service again in the tropics. About $2,000,000 will soon be expened by the United States government in fitting up officers quarters, barracks and other living facilities for the 6.300 troops which the government will send to "defend" the Panama canal. The fortifications of the canal will not be completed for a number of years, but the soldiers will be sent there as soon as living quarters can be provided. The coast artillery will, of course, be the main reliance of the government in "defending" the canal, but it is proposed to keep a regiment or two of infantry in the canal zone. Another development decided on by the administration is that the period of military service in the insulad po session will be increased, probably from two to three years. This depar ture is due partly to scientific sanita tion, which has made living conditions In the tropics reasonably healthful, and also to the impression, it not be lief, that congress would not approve an increase of the standing army. Troops for tropical service will,, therefore, be drawn from the large gar risons, and in some cases from the smaller posts, to obtain men enough to go around.
